The Old Corn Meal Question


Seeking2012

Recommended Posts

Seeking2012 Contributor

I always thought I was "Silent Celiac," but I discovered that I'm not as "silent" as I thought...I was just blaming the carbs for the foggy brain and fatigue when it was probably gluten all along! I'm still learning...

 

So, I'm in search of a truly gluten-free cornmeal. Anyone found it? I just ate Aunt Jemima corn meal and I've got foggy brain, fatigue, tiredness, weak muscles, etc. Anyone else get that? I seem to have no GI symptoms, its all brain and energy for me.

Bobs red mill has gluten-free corn meal and gluten-free corn flour (fine ground).  I use those.  I know there are others out there, but due to possible CC, I would definitely pick one up that is labeled gluten-free and tested by the company.

I have read on this site that some people have gotten sick or glutened from Bob's Red Mill gluten-free products. Is this still happening?

I have no problem with Bob's Red Mill.  Sometimes there is confusion whether it's a different ingredient or really reacting to a very small amount (tested under 20 ppm).

No one in my family has ever had a problem with BRM...six of us have been using these products for over five years.

My boys all like the corn bread mix from BRM. We haven't had any noticeable problems over the last couple of years.

I think that the BRM problems come from people with an additional oat sensitivity.  Last I heard they process their gluten free oats in their gluten-free facility.  When I called, they told me that they clean well between runs but there is that slight cc possibility in case of an extreme oat sensitivity.

      You may want to skip the oatmeal.  I believe you're trialing a gluten free diet while waiting for an appointment with your doctor in the new year and doing a gluten challenge then.  Some people with Celiac disease react to the protein in oats called avenin the same as to gluten.  Cross contamination between oats and gluten containing grains is possible.  Are you consuming certified gluten free oats?   I would hate for you to have a reaction to the oats and blame it on the vitamins. Yes, it will be fine to take them all together.  I take mine all together, B Complex, Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamine with breakfast. If you're really anxious about it, just take the B Complex and Benfotiamine at breakfast and the Thiamax at lunch.  You won't have to take a second B Complex with the Thiamax.

      So I purchased the Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine along with the Thiamax. I will take along with my Super B Complexes. I stopped taking the multi vitamins. Should I take all 3 vitamins/supplements together with my morning oatmeal breakfast? Do you think I will experience any bad symptoms when taking them.

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.
